Far Cry: New Dawn blasts into the post-apocalypse in February

That post-apocalyptic new Far Cry teased earlier this week is Far Cry: New Dawn, Ubisoft introduced tonight, a standalone sequel to Far Cry 5 set after seventeen years after that game’s nuke-slinging ending. It’ll ship us roaming the colorful wasteland of Hope County and past to thwart a viscous gang of raiders led by two sisters by doing the standard Far Cry explore-o-craft-a-shooting. What you most have to know is: it can have a Shiba Inu canine and large pig as potential animal associates. Oh, and it’s due in February. Here, watch the announcement trailer.

You could also be questioning: is that this a touch upon racial politics within the USA? The reply is definitely: if it’s meant to be, Ubisoft won’t ever admit that and it positively received’t be a very good or cogent remark.

As for what it really is, it’s like Far Cry 5 however with a post-apocalyptic fashion and some new options. Help survivors, discover an open world, shoot faces, craft issues, filter out outposts, construct up a homebase, and so forth. While it’s clearly primarily based in Far Cry 5’s setting of Hope County (and god, has that Jared Leto dickhead once more?), Ubisoft say it can discover additional afield on sure missions, visiting locations “including wetlands, canyons, and coastal regions.”

Far Cry 5: New Dawn is because of launch on February 15th, 2019. It’ll price £38, and the Steam page is already up. Its site has extra data and all.

Tonight’s announcement got here from The Game Awards, Geoff Keighley’s marketing-o-rama with bonus trophies.
